Pour the orange juice into a large, heavy-bottomed pan or Dutch oven. Add the chicken drumettes or wings to the pan, ensuring they are partially submerged in the juice.

Cover the pan with a lid and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat slightly and cook for 5 minutes, until the chicken begins to turn white.

Uncover the pan. Add the minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the chicken. Stir gently to combine the seasonings with the chicken.

Cover the pan again and continue to cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to cook further.

After 15 minutes, uncover the pan. The chicken should appear more cooked and the liquid slightly reduced. Pour in the soy sauce, water, ketchup, mustard, and honey.

Stir the chicken thoroughly to coat each piece evenly with the newly added sauce ingredients. Bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer.

Continue cooking, uncovered, for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to a glaze consistency and coats the chicken beautifully. The chicken should be fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).

Remove the pan from the heat. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
